This study planned to assess the toxicity, biochemical investigation associated with hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity of insecticide Imidacloprid (Commando 30%) in addition to serum cholinesterase (chE) activity in albino mice at orally administered sublethal dose of Commando 1/20 of LD50. Results revealed that The LD50 values obtained at 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours exposures and the 95% confidence limits for the imidacloprid (Commando 30%) obtained from the sigmoid curve were 495, 437, 344 and 210 mg/kg bw, respectively. the net body weight gains of the animals intoxicated with sublethal doses of Commando 30% was markedly significant decrease (P≤ 0.5). Significant reduction (P ˂ 0.05) in total protein, and significant increase in ALT, AST, ALP and LDH enzyme activity levels as well as significant decrease in kidney function (urea and creatinine) in all the experimental groups of mice. Serum Cholinestrase (ChE) activity was markedly significant decrease by Commando exposure mice at sublethal dose. The blood parameters of all tested groups, results showed that the median values of blood parameters decreased in animals treated with Commando 30% at a dose of 10.5 mg/kg body weight, indicative of anemic syndrome. In addition, there was a significant reduction in the number of erythrocytes and of hemoglobin concentration, with reduced hematocrit and increased MCV, characteristic of macrocytic anemia.

The effect of hypoxia and reoxygenation on Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) was studied. The fish were exposed to hypoxic oxygen concentrations (2 and 0.5 mg O2 L-1) for 1 day (short term) and 30 days (long term) followed by reoxygenation for 1 day and 7 days, respectively. The activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione S-transferase (GST) significantly decreased in the gills of all the hypoxic groups after both short and long term of hypoxia exposures, while increased significantly below control levels after reoxygenation except that the activities of SOD and GST in the reoxygenated groups pre-exposed to short-term (2 mg O2 L-1), SOD activity in the reoxygenated group pre-exposed to long-term (0.5 mg O2 L-1), and the activities of CAT and GST in all the reoxygenated groups pre-exposed to long-term hypoxia, had no significant change compared to their respective hypoxic groups. The activities of glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione reductase (GR) and xanthine oxidase (XO) significantly increased during hypoxia then decreased significantly after reoxygenation except for GPx activity in the reoxygenated group pre-exposed to short-term (2 mg O2 L-1). Malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations significantly increased in all the hypoxic and reoxygenated groups compared to their respective controls. The significance of these alterations in enzyme activities and oxidative stress indices is discussed. In conclusion, hypoxia and subsequent reoxygenation induce oxidative stress in Oreochromis niloticus gills causing depletion of some antioxidant enzymes. Long-lasting oxidative stress can delay full recovery.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of flaxseed oil as a source of omega 3 and salinity factor on growth and some enzyme activity Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) (mean initial weight 1.18 ± 0.1 g ) in indoor recycle aquarium tanks for 45 days. Results showed that adding flaxseed oil and salinity factors did not alter negatively the growth rate of Nile tilapia. Also, our data showed that fish in salinity group exhibited higher aspartate transaminase and alanine transaminase activities in liver while decreased in the flaxseed oil groups in comparison with the control. In conclusion, rearing Nile tilapia in brackish water can be a viable substitute to fresh water in Nile tilapia aquaculture without affecting the growth of tilapia. Moreover, flaxseed oil could be a viable substitute to the fish oil in Nile tilapia aquaculture without affecting the growth of tilapia. Most importantly, salinity factor can improve some enzyme activities such as ALT and AST in liver of Nile tilapia. .

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is considered a clinical syndrome, which is a diabetic kidney disease characterized by increasing blood pressure, albuminuria, and chronic kidney disease. The current study aimed to determine the effect of sweetener (Stevia rebaudiana ) on diabetic nephropathy in a diabetic rat model. Four groups (n=7) of male albino rats (Rattus norvegicus): the control group, diabetic control group (induced streptozotocin intraperitoneally), two diabetic rat groups treated with 2 doses of stevia (200 and 400 mg/kg body weight) for 4 weeks. Biomarkers of nephropathy were measured in plasma and kidneys at the end of the experiment. The levels of plasma glucose, urea, uric acid, creatinine, renal malondialdehyde (MDA), and caspase-3 significantly increased in diabetic rats and levels of insulin, renal catalase, superoxide dismutase, and vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) were significantly decreased. After treating the diabetic rats with natural sweetener (stevia), the kidney and plasma biochemical parameters were improved significantly. These results indicated the major role of stevia in diabetic nephropathy.

Doxorubicin is antibiotics anticancer drug which proved to be useful in treatment of cancer, but it has bad effect on healthy body organs. Thymus vulgaris (thyme) cultivated around the world for cosmetic, cooking, and medical uses. So, the present work aims to investigate the possible ameliorating effect of thyme oil on renal toxicity induced by doxorubicin. Adult female albino rats (Rattus norvegicus) were randomly divided into four groups (5 rats/group): control group, thyme group received orally 0.5 mL thyme oil/kg body weight once/week for 6 consecutive weeks, doxorubicin group received intraperitoneally 2 mg doxorubicin/kg body weight once/week for 6 consecutive weeks, and doxorubicin + thyme group received both doxorubicin and thyme oil once/week for 6 consecutive weeks. A significant rising in urea and creatinine level in the sera of rats injected with doxorubicin was recorded. Moreover, their kidney sections showed degenerated, vacuolated and little hemorrhage glomeruli, abnormal renal tubular cells, aggregation of mononuclear leucocytes and hyaline cast. Ultrastructure examination showed degenerated glomerular endothelial, untypical filtrating barrier, degenerated podocyte, mesangial cell, pathological proximal and distal tubular cell with damage microvilli. Treating rats with thyme oil after doxorubicin decreases the elevated levels of urea and creatinine. The glomeruli, Podocyte, intraglomerular mesangial cells and glomerular filtration barrier approximately restored its typical structure, the winding in Bouma’s space is disappeared. Most tubular cells have normal nuclei and cytoplasm. Thyme oil can improve renal functions, histological and ultrastructural changes induced by doxorubicin. So, it can be used to decrease its side effect on kidney. Keywords: Doxorubicin, Histology, Ultrastructure, Thyme oil, urea, creatinine.

The present study aims to evaluate the effects of zooplankton rotifers and copepods on sea bream Sparus aurata fry fish productivity concerning their growth performance, production, and feeding utilization. Two hundred seventy fry of the sea bream (Sparus aurata) with a mean body weight of 0.11±0.01 g were collected from fish hatchery, Alexandria, Egypt and transported to the fish rearing unit in El-Max Research Station, National Institute of Oceanography and Fishers (NIOF), Alexandria, Egypt and maintained under standard laboratory conditions. Fry fish were divided into 3 experimental groups, 120 fish each. The feeding regime of experimental group was: group 1 (T1) fed natural rotifer diet with 20% commercial diet, group 2 (T2) fed natural copepod diet with 20% commercial diet, group 3 (T3) fed natural rotifer and copepod with 20% commercial diet. The feeding was provided four times a day (8.00 &10:00 am and 12.00 & 2:00pm) at a rate of 15% of the live body weight of the fish. The present results revealed that the environmental factors: temperatures (20°C, 25°C, 30°C) and salinities (20 ppt, 25 ppt, 30 ppt) significantly affect the total number and the growth performance of rotifers (Brachionus plicatilis) and copepods (Cyclops vernalis). Additionally mixing feeding (rotifers with copepods) resulted in significant increase the carbohydrates and lipids percentage in fry fish comparing to feeding with diet

Additionally mixing feeding (rotifers with copepods) resulted in significant increase the carbohydrates and lipids percentage in fry fish comparing to feeding with diet","PeriodicalId":342785,"journal":{"name":"THE EGYPTIAN JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL BIOLOGY (Zoology)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129984789","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
